Elder Care Job in Etobicoke, Ontario
I'm an
Individual
Hi - I will need some help taking care of my mother - 87yrs old. I live with her (in a basement apartment) but also work full-time; and I'm finding as each day goes by she requires more & more assistance which I'm unable to give her unfortunately. She has dementia - but still in the early stages. She is able to dress & groom herself but lately I've been noticing she's not bathing as much as she used to. What I'll need:
>assistance with bathing (1x / week) and hair shampoo (she can do this all herself - but you have to be there just in case she falls)
>lunch preparation (she has a good appetite and is not a fussy eater); lunch is usually soup and a sandwich
>make her go outside at least 1x day; she loves to garden still but can't as much
>administer pain medication as needed (she will tell you when she's in pain)
>start off 2-3 days/week for now and gradually get her used to the company to have someone here 5 days/week.
>ideally 5hrs/day (10:00 am - 3:00) - but this is totally negotiable!
We live at Royal York Rd & Eglinton area in a bungalow. There is parking in the driveway. AND - the Royal York bus (#73) stops right at the top our our street. Thank you for taking the time to read this and hope to hear from you soon!! Take care - Linda
